Would you believe half this story is about a potty-mouthed, sentient flower from Boston?
The more you know.
There is an illustrated shopping list on a wooden surface, weighed down by flowers and two golden paperweights that are decorated with a phoenix and a dragon. The list reads: MAX'S POST-REINCARNATION SHOPPING LIST. MIRROR: remember, you're young again now, and chill out! GLASS BOTTLE: because teens deserve a drink (of milk) too. SCENT POUCH: for that fruity touch. damn you puberty 2.0!!! MORE PAPER: when you ramble & can't spell but ink is unforgiviniing... PRESSED FLOWER BOOKMARK: 1. show her flowers can be immortal in the right hands 2. prove sincerity 3. get the girl?? (thoughts and prayers)
Maximillian Pegasusβs tragic love story x Sad Boyβ’ East Asian isekai
Heβs just a little guy, whoβs technically an adult because reincarnation is weird. But he also has a huge crush that might end in β οΈ. At least he has a mostly coherent shopping list??

A moodboard consisting of 5 pictures, each outlined in navy blue. The 5th picture is in the centre. A foggy wooden dockyard at night. The inside of a tackle shop. Nets, buoys, and fishing paraphernalia hand from the wall and ceiling. A pile of grey fish. A hand reaching out of grey water, the sky above is overcast. A fishing boat on the ocean. Seagulls swarm it in the air.
Outlined text over a dark blue ocean. The horizon is obscured by fog. Arrows point to words scattered across the image. The text reads: From the Sea Fret. Revenge. Queer Transmac MC. Cosmic horror. Paranoia. Thalassophobia. Creepy small town.
